Chiefs LT Eric Fisher suffered groin injury in Friday's practice

The Kansas City Chiefs had an injury occur during Friday’s practice ahead of their Week 2 game against the Oakland Raiders.

Following practice, Andy Reid addressed the media and in his opening statement, he updated everyone on injuries. The new injury occurred in Friday’s practice, which is usually a light day compared to the rest of the week. Left tackle Eric Fisher injured his groin during practice and was unable to finish the day.

Reid didn’t have an update on the severity of the injury to Fisher. He’ll likely be listed as questionable on the final injury report unless the Chiefs are able to find out more about the injury quickly.

It felt like Chiefs starting QB Patrick Mahomes got hit too many times last week against the Jaguars. Now, the Chiefs could potentially head into a game with a bitter AFC West rival without their starting left tackle. It’s not an ideal situation and if Mahomes’ mobility is hampered by his ankle sprain, it raises even greater concerns.

The Chiefs have four players who could potentially step in and play left tackle if Fisher couldn’t play. Those players are Andrew Wylie, Cameron Erving, Jeff Allen and Martinas Rankin. Rankin has only been on the team a short time so I’d expect them to go with one of the more veteran players. I suspect that Cameron Erving will get his number called.
